lans,

my copy of 120 Days is fatter than a fucken phone book. i read it in snippets during the school year. once you get past the first 250 pages youve gotten past pretty much the entire story. and how could you not inform me of your latest reading interests, given my signature? sigh.

love,

assy

assboy,

knowing me as you do, how could you not already know...? i agree with that ass-essment. but if you hunt diligently as you read, gems surface here and there that are brilliant.

the kerouac is much better, though.

Angels and Demons - Dan Brown. I wish I'd read it before I read The Da Vinci Code.

Bunch of college textbooks... X_X

But I do find this book called Resilent Identities by William Swann as he explores about self-esteem and its nature very well.

I was going to start it when I finish the book I am reading. I too read Davinci Code first. Did that mess it up for you?

Ooh, Andy is pounding through the reading list. You're better man that I.

Just finished "Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal" Christopher Moore [which I highly recommend]
